His first dealership was City Chevrolet in Charlotte, N.C., and his race team has fielded cars only from within the General Motors family. So with the hard economic times facing GM and the other automakers in the United States, Hendrick is doing his part to help. And you can, too.

But none of that puts Johnson at ease in the desert.
